Hi dear Joe. Wishing you a wonderful and safe Halloween!!
It is rainy today and a cold front is moving in where I am in upstate New York USA. But most of the trick and treaters were aware of it, so parties were held last weekend. I heard on the news that some were thinking of moving Halloween!! How do you move a Holiday lol.
Holloween was so named really All Hallows Eve way back in the day... which was the day before All Hallows Day which when this was started a l ong time ago Hallows were Holy or Saints Day which then became All Saints day. But somewhere a long the line All Hallows Eve became Halloween and All Hallows Day became All Saints Day, as the language changed. The day after All Saints Day which is the 1st of November, then the 2 nd of November is all Souls Day. That was a day that the Catholic church prayed for those that have departed and are in purgatory.
May you havea wonderhul and very safe Halloween and rest of the week too. Love and Hugs Connie XXXXXXXXXXXXXOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Hello Connie. It was a rainy day here for the kiddies but they were out in force getting their goodies. Was quiet here for me as I live on a dead end street. Nobody comes here. They stick on the main street where all the stores are for their goodies. After that rain it turned cold and very windy with temps near the freezing mark. Winds were a good 60 mph. There were a lot of power outages. Some still have no power yet. I just had two pine branches broken. My neighbor got his car damaged when his car shelter flipped over by the wind. Other places were worse with roofs were lifted. Tonight temp will drop below the freezing mark. Take care and have a nice evening and weekend also. Hugs. Joe!!!!!! XXXXXXXXXXOOOOOOOOOO
Hi Ken. Love the kitty on your page. Are you being effected by the fires in CA? How are you cats doing? . Wishing you a wonderful and safe Halloween!!

Hi Connie, I hope that you are having a safe Halloween. You are right about how halloween started (I read it somewhere). About the cats, I lost my Calico (Cleo) Feb. 2014 and my tabby (Snoots) Feb. 2017). I am still thinking about if I want to replace them. I do miss them both.The cat on my page reminds me of my cat.
HI Sis Connie, oh such a newsy comment, so sorry about Julian and his troubles at school. but so happy to hear that now he is somewhere else and I am sure he will be happier. Can't believe how those grand kids of yours have grown up. And happy to that Shane is doing so well and also is getting along so well iwth Julian. it makes such a difference doesn't it? That is certainly a big house with that many square feet in it. Nice to have the yard too and everything else that goes with it.
not much new up here Connie, frosty days and mornings are very cool. have to wear your parka out each morning. at least the sun comes out so that is nice.
Love your page is just excellent. Did you do it? all for now Sis and take care , keep well, and will hear from you when you can. Love and hugs, Sis Moe
Pleasant day to you. My goodness tomorrow we start the month of November. Such a very special month full of birthdays plus Thanksgiving at Grammies. The sun is shinning today which warms ones heart. Enjoying some French Vanilla & Almond flavored coffee from Cameron's at the moment.
Library has some books in for me that I order awhile back so will visit our friendly library this afternoon.
Yes all is well here and yes our new great granddaughter Ellie is beautiful.
I am still trying to keep active. I started back roller skating ( 4 wheels) this past summer. It had been maybe 35 years since I was last on roller skates. I fell down a few times earlier on but getting better now.
We had a vacation on Canada's east coast in July, visiting New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. It was a great trip.
Hoping that all is well in your life and that you see your lovely grandchildren often.
Take care.
Hugs.

Hi Len, Long time no hear. Likely my fault. I hope you are doing well and your little grandbaby is a bunch of fun .Wishing you a very Happy and Blessed Day and have a Happy and Safe Halloween
My goodness afew snowflakes are coming down in our area to brighten this day even more. Enjoying at the moment some gingerbread flavored coffee to go along with the snowflakes. Ha Ha. Hope your day is nice to you and your enjoying your day. Smiles Gloria
Closing out another month that went by fast. Getting a cold front coming in that will get us close to freezing temps so going to protect plants in case of frost. Afraid the trick or treaters are going to have rain & cold temps for Halloween. We bought a lot of candy but most of it is the kind we like so time will tell. Have a bootiful day.............George
A very nice Tuesday day to you. It is abit chilly in our area with the temp at 22 or so. A great day to make up some Bear Creek Cheddar Broccoli soup mixes. It's so yummy ! Of course one must enjoy the oyster crackers along with the soup. May you have a nice afternoon. Now where is my coffee cup for I need to have another cup of that pumkin spice. Smiles Gloria
"Hi Angelika another great page. Have you thought of putting any of your beautiful creations on NOTH layouts group? I do wish you would. Here's Wishing you a very Happy and Blessed Day and have a Happy and Safe Halloween
Love and Hugs Connie" ___________________________________________________________
Dearest Connie, Thank you for your comment and the beautiful graphics. No, I have no interest in bringing my layouts into the NOTH layout group. I really spend a lot of time completing a layout. Unfortunately, this is not rewarded and I can not see that the members who use such layout also left a thank you, there are very few exceptions. Right now I'm FM with "Angelikas_Test's" page. Although there is a link to my other pages, none of the visitors visited them, I would see it on the Avatar, with the exception of TomDD. If you would like to using one of my Layouts please ask me and I'll send you the Code.
I have had health problems for some time, right and left movement restrictions from the shoulder to the fingertips. You will not believe it, pouring the milk into the coffee cup is difficult and causes pain without being able to endure painkillers. Unfortunately, I'm still waiting for an appointment with the orthopedist. Warn Hugs from Bavaria and a Happy Halloween to you and Bob, Angelika
Dropping by to say hi. Hope you are doing well. Sorry I haven't been on here much lately, been working a lot of hours and have total burn out. So, when I am home I have been in total lazy, don't care about anything mode, which I really need to snap out of lol. Been really cooling down here, think Winter is going to come early. Going to get down to 25 tonight. Brrr.... I really dislike the cold weather.. Much rather be toasty warm.. Anyway, hope you are enjoying your weekend... Take care and have a great week~~~ hugs, debijo
